P25-071 City of Port St. Lucie - Chapter 155, Sign Code - Text Amendment

body

Submitted By: Daniel Robinson, Planner III

 

Executive Summary: Proposed amendment to Chapter 155, “Sign Code” (Exhibit A) of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Port St. Lucie to provide clarification on sign code regulations and exemptions, to correct a scrivener’s error, and to allow an additional freestanding sign for larger projects based on primary street frontage. 

 

Presentation Information: Staff will provide a presentation.

 

Staff Recommendation: Move that the Board recommend approval of the proposed text amendment.

 

Alternate Recommendations:

1.                     Move that the Board amend the recommendation and recommend approval.

2.                     Move that the Board recommend denial and provide explanation.

 

Background: There was a scrivener’s error made on the previous amendment within Table D that is being corrected. Staff is also proposing some clarifying language for the exemption regulations. Staff is proposing to change the freestanding sign regulations to allow an additional freestanding sign for larger projects based on primary street frontage because we are finding the larger shopping areas desire additional signage and the existing code is very restrictive.

 

Issues/Analysis: See attached staff report.

                     

Special Consideration: N/A

 

Location of Project: N/A
